FAQ
Why Karavan?
Because a favourite singer's surname sounded similar 20+ years ago. (It really is that boring; a more adventurous origin story I'd have to make up.)
Is the book "Always Too Late" depressing?
I don't think so. Nor do those who've read it — from what I've heard, at least.
Why is there a girl in a gas mask on the cover?
Because she's cool.
So it's not about war or anything?
No.
Do you still have copies for sale?
Yes. (Czech edition only.)
Will you send me a book for free?
No.
Will you send me a book in return for some favour?
Maybe. What would it be?
Are you writing anything else?
No prose. Smaller things now and then, otherwise just my journal.
You've already finished the other two. When do they come out?
Next year at the earliest. A Land of Concrete and Rain and Nothing New Under the Sun are introduced on the Books page.
Aren't you always writing about the same thing?
No, but the three books so far are connected in many ways, and the last of them closes off something important.
What will you write when you start again?
I'm sorting ideas. Soaking up information. Living my life and letting it run in the background. In other words: I don't know yet.
Where can I meet you?
In Pardubice. It's safer to give me a heads-up first.
When are you free?
It varies. It's safer to give me a heads-up first.
Are you single?
Yes, once again.
Will you marry my daughter?
Probably not.
Do you think you're funny?
On a scale between Czech stand-up comedians and actual humour, I'd place myself fairly confidently.
Why Luko?
Honestly, I don't remember.
